Karen specializes in assisting those with

body, touch and trauma issues. ﻿

There is no denying the power of bodywork.

Regardless of the adjectives we assign to it (pampering, rejuvenation, therapeutic) or the reasons we seek it out (a luxurious treat, stress relief, pain management), massage therapy can be a powerful ally in your healthcare regimen. Experts estimate that upwards of ninety percent of disease is stress related. And perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress. While eliminating anxiety and pressure altogether in this fast-paced world may be idealistic, massage can, without a doubt, help manage stress. Furthermore, clients often report a sense of perspective and clarity after receiving a massage. The emotional balance bodywork provides can often be just as vital and valuable as the more tangible physical benefits.

SOME OF MY CLIENTELE INCLUDE:

*Those who experience low self esteem, body image or eating disorder issues. With a "Come as you are" philosophy - you will never be judged and will receive the support you need to be nurtured. Remember, I have also walked in those shoes.

*athletes~from the ultra athlete to the weekend warriors. Together massage can assist in a 50% faster recovery time.

The essence of my practice is to empower each client so that they heal themselves.
